A typeface created as part of our first project on the Graphic Design course at UWE. The project was to centre a typeface around a theme and to create the typeface on Fontstruct. My chosen theme was Motion. I chose to use the motion of water for the basis of my project and used its properties to distort and disfigure popular serif typefaces. After many experiments with baths, basins and trips to the local fountains Alphawet was created.

Brilliant! 10/10

Had you thought about increasing the 'word space'? (it's next to the 'z')

So perfect in every way... 10/10! And yeah this would make an excellent Captcha, as Demonics said :P

Excellent detail and effect.
You may want to increase the SPACE size.

Thanks for the feedback guys, i really really appreciate it.
P2pnut, Umbreon126 thanks for the comment about spacing, I will definitely have a play around with it in the next few days.

Also, I'm trying to work on some numbers and also a "." "," "?" and "!" to make a full typeset. I had to upload it without them to begin with due to a deadline with the project but I will definitely develop it further and make a full typeset.

Again, any feedback is much appreciated.
